Joy Bungalow
Joy Bungalow was the first resort built on Koh Jum back in 1987, long a backpacker favorite and the best-known resort on the Island.
Joy Bungalow is of Thailand’s true travelers’ meeting points. All kinds of people, from all corners of the globe have made Koh Jum, and in particular Joy Bungalow, their escape from the rest of the world. This small, unspoilt tropical hide-away has a unique ambience which lends itself to quiet contemplation and genuine feeling of inner peace. The limited use of electricity and current use of oil lamps enhance this feeling
At JOY, we go out of our way not to make our resort a business. Our commitment is to give you nature in the most natural way.
The people of Joy Bungalow will welcome you with open arms. Just don’t tell anyone and let’s keep it this way!
